Review:
GAME OF THRONES There is always something happening on stage, so the audience, sitting in the semi-arena, doesn't have much space to focus on anything else. Mainly because once the Brothers in Tights appear, it's hard to take your eyes off them. For with them comes their distinctive charisma (accentuated by their characteristic twisted moustaches), which, together with their humour, juggling talent and bluntly original ideas, forms the precise basis of this charming toilet fairy tale. Veronika Holečková, Divadelní noviny
The challenge for the Brothers may have been working with the spoken word, of which there is relatively a lot in this production. Moreover, they use practically flawless double voices, which evoke a fairy-tale atmosphere. The Brothers in Tights duo proved to be unstoppable, and they don't just shy away from anything. After the internationally successful Running Odyssey, they relax the audience with a mature and wittily displayed fairy tale. Lucie Štádlerová
